Kent Chiropractors and Sciatica

Pressure on the sciatic nerve is usually intensely painful. At Kent Chiropractors, we offer comprehensive treatment of this condition. The sciatic nerve extends along the back of the leg beginning in the gluteus Maximus region.  Kent Chiropractors uses a variety of treatments for this condition: realignment of the musculoskeletal system to remove the impingement on the nerve; massage therapy helps to relax the muscles and ease the pain of patients, and exercise to allow muscles to return to normal functioning. Throughout the period of care, the focus is to help the patient discover the underlying cause for the crimping of the nerve. Following this, a programmed develops that trains the patient’s body to maintain its stability and strength.
